I'm trying to get better at tourneys. I lost the hand, but I don't want to be thinking results oriented, so details are unimportant. I didn't have many reads on the blinds, except that they were tending to call pushes somewhat light (sb had called my openpush in a blind battle earlier with K6o when I had him covered; I'd had 37s). I could likely have moved into the money within the next couple rounds if I had not done this. Should I be making this push or no?
